Description
Hi Everyone!
I hope you are all doing fine and having a great week!
Today I have this animation based on the song "Streets of Philadelphia"
This song was written and sung by Bruce Springsteen for the movie named
"Philadelphia" starring Tom Hanks and Denzel Washington, released back in
December 22, 1993. (its been awhile)
What an amazing artist Bruce Springteen has been all these years. (there is good
reason he is concidered "The Boss" in the music world) I have always liked this song
but found it a bit too sad...nevertheless I went ahead and made an animation using this
song, yet at the same time doing everything possible to treat this song with the respect
that this emotionally intense song deserves.
My apologies for the visual mistakes I made (I had a few rendering issues) I corrected a
few and some others I let go due to the length of time it would have taken to render the
scenes over again.
Christmas is fast approaching and I would like to get another animation done before then.
The year has gone by so fast...I don't feel like I got to know 2021 very well and before you
know it, we will be welcoming 2022 soon. We just have to find a way to slow time down!
I am presently looking for someone with a time machine...I promise to take good care of it
and will return it in the same shape in which it was received...and yes I will accept a slightly
used DeLorean as long as the Flux Capacitor is in good working order! "LOL" :-) Any "Back
to the Future" fans out there? I will most likely be doing an animation with this awesome car
in the near future.
Thank you all for your awesome support and wonderful comments.
You are the main reason I am here my friends!
Take care and have a great weekend everyone! :-)

The face and body language of your character - so beautifully done. Your timing of visuals and lyrics - so powerful - fading away . . . Pulling the emotions up out of us - with such a force. Masterful work . . .
You really did a professional job on this, good sir!
I am so impressed with this video. I think you conveyed very well the loneliness that people who suffered from that horrible disease struggled with. Very, very well done!
You have come up here with a real gem of an animation movie that can't leave no-one indifferent. Every single framed shot in motion seems to echo the rhythm of Bruce Springsteen's wonderful song, and the impression of solitude and disarray is intense and superbly conveyed. You are a real artist ! Well done !
Great production as always, I get a sence of loneliness. I know many feel like this even being around others. It's not easy being a human. Such a shame we are not as empathetic and compassionate for all people. You have great talent and skill and are an inspiration to me and so many others. Have a great holiday. 🙂
FANTASTIC!!!!
A arte é pura a sensibilidade toca em todo o sentimento, fantástica arte e realização, aplausos (5)
I never dared to dive into rendering videos, because I always feared, that it is too complicated and way too time consuming doing this with Daz or and that the end result would look too primitive or sketchy, but there are some Artists out here who prove the . One of them, certainly is you! You did an outstanding job on this, which can't be emphasized enough! Very, very well done!
Very touching! The song is beautiful, and your work is truly amazing!!!!
Bravo. This is touching, emotional, and sad; but there is strength there, too. The mood of this whole piece/video touches the heart. Well done, this is excellent work.
Well, this is an amazing video ! I saw regularly your comments on my friend Gaius' gallery and I've decided to see what your artwork looks like. I'm not deceived. You're a great artist ! Oh, by the way, we both like the little dog in Gaius images :-) Bravo again for this video : great mood and animation !
good editing
Fantastic render and great looking character! Most superb result! I like it! Bravo!

Breathtaking! Literally it took my breath, brought me to tears! I had to watch it twice...For me the emotion is quite heavy...I worked with aids patients, mostly shut in's, and lost many that I considered as friends...one of the things that angered me about the disease was the lack of human support, especially from family members...I will never understand the hatred and fear displayed for the poor suffering souls and that they simply did not understand that they would not catch it from a hug, a touch...ignorance ran rampant...I am a female, a mother, and I took my son with me on my visits, even to the hospital when some were dying...the depiction of the character losing so much weight, showing the loss of muscle, clothes not fitting right, those were spot on! Even my friends turned away from me thinking I would pass it on, so the barren streets were perfect...Btw, I am not a nurse, I volunteered to do this, it brought great sadness but also joy when someone beat the disease...you rock my friend! so much passion and compassion and beautiful talent! Bravo!
